Consecutive goals scored/allowed (2005 to 2023-24)

I wanted to check what some of the long goal-scoring runs in recent Bandits' history were. 

Most Consecutive Goals Scored - 2005 - 2024

Number - Game  - Date 
12 - @New England - 3/23/18
10 - New England - 5/2/15
9 - @Toronto - 4/14/17
9 - Portland - 3/21/09
8 - Toronto - 2/14/09
8 - @Rochester - 1/31/15
8 - Vancouver - 4/25/15
8 - @Georgia - 2/14/16
8 - @Vancouver - 3/17/17
8 - @New England - 1/27/19
8 - @Philadelphia - 1/28/05

Now for the negative side of thing. You'd have to consider New York's seven straight goals to be something of an upset. 

Most Consecutive Goals Allowed - 2005 - 2024

Number - Game - Date
11 - @Minnesota - 4/6/13
10 - @Calgary - 4/14/18
9 - @Toronto - 3/29/13

8 - @Edmonton - 3/21/14
8 - Georgia - 4/22/17
8 - Toronto - 1/7/05
7 - @Minnesota - 1/28/12
7 - @Rochester - 3/10/12
7 - Minnesota - 2/28/09

Bandits' Power-Play Goals in a Game (2005 to 2024)

On March 9, 2013, Colorado rolled up six power-play goals in beating the Bandits. That raised the question, what are the recent highs in the category, for and against? I started keeping track, and still am.

Here is the list of most power-play goals in a regular-season game by the Bandits since 2007, with nothing new in 2024:

No. - Game - Date
9 - Philadelphia - 3/1/08
9 - Minnesota - 1/20/07
8 - @Toronto - 3/16/12
7 - @New England - 3/23/18
7 - @Georgia - 2/9/18
6 - Portland - 3/21/09
6 - @Halifax - 3/8/20
6 - @Toronto - 1/31/06

22 tied at five; last done:
5 - Albany - 12/3/22
5 - @New York - 1/28/23


Conversely, here are the most power-play goals allowed by Buffalo since 2007:

No. - Game - Date
9 - @Minnesota - 1/28/12
8 - @Minnesota - 4/6/13
8 - Toronto - 1/7/05
7 - Toronto - 3/31/12
6 - @Edmonton - 3/21/14
6 - @Colorado - 3/16/13
6 - @Calgary - 3/24/12
6 - @Washington - 4/28/12
6 - Philadelphia - 2/19/11
6 - Toronto - 3/13/15
6 - New York - 1/19/08
6 - Toronto - 2/2/07
6 - Toronto - 2/3/07
6 - @Minnesota - 3/4/07
6 - @New York - 1/30/22

Let's try this for the postseason. Here are the Bandits' top power-play goal numbers in the playoffs, dating back to the 2005 season:

No. - Game - Date
6 - Rochester - 4/29/06
5 - New England - 5/4/19
4 - Colorado - 5/28/23
4 - @Calgary - 5/25/19
4 - New England - 5/21/16
4 - @Toronto - 5/3/14
4 - Rochester - 4/23/05
3 - @New England - 5/16/16
3 - @Rochester - 5/8/15
3 - New York - 5/10/08 

And here are the numbers for Buffalo's opponents in the postseason from 2005 on:
